40K will get you a "PHP Rock Star"... in India or Eastern Europe.

There are flags (which I've forgotten) that force sendmail to queue mail
only.  Searching for QueueOnly or something might help.

But as is the case with most things sendmail, it doesn't work so well
all the time.  Solutions tend on using a different MTA (postfix and
qmail queue by default, and let the calling process proceed almost
instantly).

That said, the real way to do it if you have tons of emails to send is
to fork() a process out.  This then continues to talk to your MTA, while
the web page returns immediately.
